They carry a small selection of very comfy (often slouchy) dresses, tops, skirts, and lingerie. Unfortunately, every time I see an adorable skirt I'd like to buy, they don't have my size (8/M). I'd give it 4 stars for zen, 3 stars for selection/stock. Follow on Facebook for specials and each season's new lines.

They offer such a variety of high quality products. Clothing, candles, jewelry, decorative items for the home....but what you won't find is mass produced "touristy" junk. The owners obviously take great care in choosing unique items you are unlikely to see in any other shop. I could spend hours in this store, and when I'm in town I often do!

The hand carved wooden spoons were especially nice tho exceeding over priced-$50 and up for large spoons; $20 for jam spoons and butter knives. I did get one of the larger spoons but have questioned my sanity ever since. Since i'm not into quirky, probably would not return.

The consensus is that a visit to the gallery feels good and is a must when visiting Suttons Bay. I would suggest only that the gallery sometimes feels a bit crowded (hence four, rather than five, stars). See for yourself!

My friends and I were walking through downtown Suttons Bay one day when Poppy Things was closed & just from the storefront / window displays, we knew we needed to come back when they were open to check it out. We did exactly that the following day & were so pleased to find what was inside. This store is so eclectic. It is filled with clothes, art prints, jewelry, house plants, home goods, and so many adorably trendy & gorgeous accessories that I thought my heart was going to burst! I wanted to buy everything in the store to decorate my house with! Can't wait to come back to Suttons Bay (hopefully soon!) to discover new, cute things in this store!

We were up north with my inlaws for a week and stopped by here a few times to browse all the…read morebeautiful, colorful pieces. My SIL & BIL just bought a new house so they were excitedly exploring all the decor, particularly garden decor, for their new abode. My husband's niece also recently got her first house and she excitedly picked out several cute things for her yard like the stone owls and a couple of other pieces. While everyone was browsing outside I popped inside and saw the most gorgeous embroidered chair. It was blue with orange birds and flowers all over it. I showed it to my husband who also loved it and urged me to get it. "That is an Annette chair if I've ever saw one" he said. Alas, we are due for getting some repair work done around our house so I balked at the price and said "maybe next time!" And stepped away from the chair with a longing look. Hah. I didn't leave empty handed tho! I picked up a cute solar grasshopper figurine to add to my garden and a golden fox statue for indoor decor. Anyway, I left the shop to go browse down the street and long story short, my in-laws were sneaky and bought me the chair as a surprise gift!! I was floored by their generosity and tried to argue, but the deal was done so I accepted the gift with the kindness intended. Now, between me, my husband, my mom, three dogs and all our luggage we had zero room in our car for the chair so my sneaky in-laws also arranged delivery with the shop. A day or two after we got back home I got a call and text from the gallery letting me know the owner himself was going to be in our town the next day and had the chair with him for delivery. I was surprised and impressed that they did their own delivery (not sure what I expected but wasn't white glove service by the owner to our house 4.5 hours from them!) My husband greeted him at the door and the chair was delivered in all its beautiful glory. So yeah, this store is great for unique decor both small (cute stone owls) to large (a beautiful embroidered chair) and everything in between. Now I just have to figure out the right place to put it bc this is a chair that demands to be seen!
